Replace the batteries with new ones if the remote control can

only be operated within a narrow range.

NOTE

If there are remote control codes for external components

registered to the remote control, removing the batteries for more

than 2 minutes, or leaving exhausted batteries in the remote

control, may clear the remote control codes. If this should occur,

replace the batteries with new ones, and set the remote control

CONNECTIONS

This unit uses acoustic field effects and sound decoders to bring you the impact of a real movie theater or concert hall. These effects will be brought to you with ideal speaker positioning and

connections in your listening environment.

Speaker channels and functions

■

Front left and right speakers

The front speakers are used for the front channel sounds (stereo

sound) and effect sounds.

Front speaker layout:

Place these speakers at an equal distance from the ideal listening

position in the front of the room. When using a projector screen,

the appropriate top positions of the speakers are about 1/4 of the

screen from the bottom.

■

Center speaker

The center speaker is for the center channel sounds (dialogue,

vocals, etc.).

Center speaker layout:

Place it halfway between the left and right front speakers. When

using a TV, place the speaker just above or just under the center of

the TV with the front surfaces of the TV and the speaker aligned.

When using a screen, place it just under the center of the screen.

■

Surround left and right speakers

The surround speakers are for effect and vocal sounds while

playing back more than 5.1-channel source. When used with no

surround back speaker while playing back more than 6.1-channel

source (including surround back channel), sound of surround back

channel is distributed between the left and right surround speakers.

Surround speaker layout:

Place the speakers at the rear of the room on the left and right sides

facing the listening position. They should be placed between 60

degrees and 80 degrees from the listening position and with the

speaker tops at a height of 1.5 – 1.8 m from the floor.

■

Presence left and right speakers

The presence speakers are used for front effect sounds. When used

in combination with the sound programs (☞

p. 53), a sound with a

richer and more spatial presence is possible.

Presence speaker layout:

Place the left and right presence speakers 0.5 – 1 m to the outside

of the left and right front speakers respectively. The tops of the

presence speakers should be 1.8 m above the floor.

■

Surround back left and right speakers

The surround back speakers are for rear effect sounds while

playing back more than 6.1-channel source. When used with only

one surround back speaker while playing back more than 7.1-

channel source, sound of the left and right surround back channel is

mixed and output from a single speaker.

Surround back speaker layout:

When used with 7.1ch sound, arrange the left and right speakers

towards the listening position, to the rear of the listening position.

Arrange the left and right speakers at least 30 cm apart. The same

separation as with the front left and right speakers is optimum.

When used with 6.1ch sound, arrange these to the rear of the

listening position.

■

Subwoofer

The subwoofer speaker is used for bass sounds and low-frequency

effect (LFE) sounds included in Dolby Digital and DTS. Use a

subwoofer that is equipped with built-in amplifier.

Subwoofer speaker layout:

Place it to the outside of the front left and right speakers facing

slightly inward to reduce echoes from the wall. You can use one or

two subwoofers and select the position of subwoofers from “Left +

Right,” “Front + Rear” and “Monaural x2” (☞p. 94).

Speaker layout

In addition to the 7.1-channel speaker layout, a variety of speaker configurations can be specified with

presence speaker connection, bi-amp connection or the Zone2/Zone3 function.

In addition, this unit is equipped with the “Power Amp Assign” function, which can be used to easily

apply the appropriate speaker settings to this unit according to speaker configuration.

■

Connection of speakers

Connect the speakers to the appropriate jacks shown in the table for each speaker layout. Refer to

“Connecting speakers and subwoofers” (☞

p. 20) for details on connecting speakers.

You can also use two subwoofers by connecting them to both SUBWOOFER1 (FRONT) and

SUBWOOFER2 (REAR) jacks. And, you can use the EXTRA SP1 jacks for Zone3 speakers and

EXTRA SP2 jacks for Zone2 by setting the assignment with “Power Amp Assign” (☞

p. 93).

■

Assigning a speaker configuration

A speaker configuration must be assigned to this unit to activate the speakers. Use the Power Amp

Assign function to apply the appropriate settings shown in the table for each speaker layout. Refer to

“Power Amp Assign” (☞

p. 93) for details on setting.

CONNECTIONS

Connecting speakers

En 20

Connecting speakers and subwoofers

Connect your speakers to their respective terminals on the rear panel.

■ Front/Center/Surround/Surround back speaker and

Subwoofer connection

When connecting only one surround back speaker, connect the

speaker to the SURROUND BACK L (SINGLE) jacks.

■ Presence speaker connection

When using the presence speakers, connect the speakers to the

EXTRA SP1 jacks as shown in the diagram below.

The presence speakers (PL/PR) that output front effect sounds can

be connected to this unit. With the sound programs (☞

p. 57),

sound with a richer and more spatial presence can be created.

CAUTION

• Remove the power cable of this unit from the power outlet before connecting the speakers.

• Generally speaker cables consist of two parallel insulated cables. One of these cables is a different color, or has a line running along it, to indicate different polarity. Insert the different colored (or lined) cable into the “+”

(positive, red) terminal on this unit and the speakers, and the other cable into the “–” (negative, black) terminal.

• Be careful that the core of the speaker cable does not touch anything or come into contact with the metal areas of this unit. This may damage this unit or the speakers. If the speaker cables short circuit, “CHECK SP

WIRES!” will appear on the front panel display when this unit is switched on.
